The kindly life In house or street; The life of prayer.and mystic rite; The student's search for truth ' and light; These paths at one great June- tlon meet. Before the oldest book was writ, Full many a prehistoric soul, Arrived at this unchanging goal. Through changeless love, that led to it. What matters that one found his Christ In rising sun. or burning fire; If faith within him did not tire. His longing for the truth suf- ficed. 4 Ella Wheeler Wilcox. THE O. K. & N. CAMPAIGN. In pursuance of Its highly commen dable policy of, advocating better farming methods In the Inland em pire, the O. R. & X. company has announced that it will conduct a 10 years' campaign for Increased yields, diversified farming and rotation of . crops in this section. This means a campaign of educa tion, publicity, demonstration and ac tual rults. It means that the pro gressive officials of this company are simply going to force prosperity on the farming sections of eastern Ore gon and Washington. The O. R. & N. company Is right In its assumption that eastern Ore gon counties should produce double the amount of traffic and consequent ly double the amount of profits which they now produce. The company Is right in saying that dozens of profit able crops will grow as well as wheat o'n the rich lands of Union, Baker, Umatilla and Morrow counties and the company seems determined to prove the assertion by actual demon stration. The East Oregonlan Is delighted to see the railroad company engage In this work. It means millions of dol lars in Increased profits for the farm ers and stockmen of this section. It means thousands of tons of new traf fic originating In this territory and It jneans labor for idle men, Investment for Idle capital, work for Idle streams ard Idle power now running to waste and general prosperity for everybody In the Inland empire. If this diversified farming plan Is carried out It means that eastern Or egon will be the feeding ground of the northwest and will furnish meats, fruit, vegetables and other food stuffs for the entire Pacific coast, Alaska and the orient. This is the, greatest Industrial and economic undertaking ever planned In the northwest and will be watched with Interest by those who have the welfare of the country truly at heart. WHAT A PAPER HAS TO SELL. A newspaper sells Its space to busl neaa interests for a profit, just as a farmer sella his wheat crop, a mer chant his gooda, a minister hla serv ices or a butcher hla meats. Advertis ing apace is a paper's tock in trade. That la the aource of its income. If a paper did not sell Its advertla ing apace It could not tret out an Issue and pay expenses, and at the same time what people say in their adver - tlsementa, which they have paid for, la cot any part of the editorial policy of i the paper. Any man or busineaa firm or aocl- ety or organisation mar our adver itBing space In a paper and aay what- ever U desired In that apace, as long as It Is decent and not prohibited by the United States postofflce regula tions. At the same time the state ments In the advertisements have iothing to do with the paper's opinion or policy. Because the liquor Interests have bought and paid for space In the East Oregonlan Is no evidence that they l-.ave any claim on the editorial poli cy of the paper. 1'tvnuso the anti suffrage women have bought space in the East Oregonlan Is no sign that this paper has changed Its belief on the equal suffrage question. Be cause socialists buy space in Its col umns is no sign that It Is a socialist pnper and because democrats or re prbllenns buy and pay for advertising space Is no sign that their advertise ments will Influence the editorial opinion of the paper. So many people misunderstand the management of a newspaper. They think the paid advertisements are a part of the policy of the paper. They think that the stuff contained In the paid advertising matter is original with the paper, when such is not the esse. The East Oregonlan pays out $300 every Saturday night to Its employes and in addition pays out enormous sums during each month for paper, repairs and other necessaries and In order to meet these expenses and pay its employes and keep Its business go ing It sells Its advertising space and receives pay from It. That Is what it has to sell and In this enlightened age everybody knows that the advertising matter Is not a part of any paper's Individual opinion or policy. IIKHMISTON. So much has been said and written about Hermlston, so many stories of the government irrigation project have been sent out and so many pictures have been printed that people are now really anxious to see Hermiston and the government Irrigation project near there. On Wednesday, May 2", when water will be turned from the big reservoir for the first time, the people of this county will have an opportunity to see Hermiston and the project at their test. The little town which has sprung up In the desert within three years, Is now thriving and prosper ous and has every appearance of a miniature city. Crops are growing on many por tions of the project and water is run ning everywhere through the canals and laterals. The big dam, the larg est and costliest In the state, is now about complete and Its mechanism is wonderful to behold. Over $1,000, 000 has been expended there and, It Is a perfect Irrigation system, offering homes for thousands when once It Is placed under actual Irrigation. The property values in that section ot the county will increase 10-fold In the next few years and the East Ore- Ionian feels sale in predicting that within an Incredibly short time the name of Hermiston will be heralded far and wide as the garden spot, vine yard and orchard of the northwest. Join the excursion next Wednesday and see Hermiston and the govern rnent Irrigation project. LAST WEEK Ol' CAMPAIGN. The last week of the campaign Is ni.w here and everything looks favor able for the republican party In Ore gt n. The signal will be sent out on June 1, that Oregon la still in the list of republican states, that Bhe has con fidence In the Integrity of republican principles and is satisfied with the past history and achievement and fu ture promise of the party. The outlook for the election of H. M. Cake to the senate is especially bright, despite the vigorous campaign of Governor Chamberlain and his ad miring friends. The Issues in the senatorial cam paign are national and not local. A senator helps make the policy of the arty, a governor does not. A sena tor la called upon to sustain and ad vance the principles of his party every day while a governor does not have that opportunity once a year, except In appointments which are the least and most insignificant of party achievements. Governor Chamberlain stepped in to the arena of Oregon politics at an opportune time, and being an oppor tunist and a amooth campaigner, he waa carried to victory on the popular wave. But now times have changed. This la a national election. A senator la called upon to sustain the sacred principles of hla party and help make party policies and as a democrat Geo. E. Chamberlain will not be sent to the senate by the republican state of Or egon. H. M. Cake, the regular republican nominee for the senate, has made a clean, honest fight. He has received the vote of hla party at the primaries and is entitled to the Office by every means. His party cannot afford to vote against him. He is the party choice and If the republicans and or ganization of the party amount to Hi.ything every republican should vote fof Mr. Cake. If Oregon Is to ch'ingo Into the dem ocratic ranks, If republicans care i' thing more for the principles and history of the party, why of course tl.ey will vote for a democrat for the senate. A dozen active democrats In the senate can maneuver to block any legislation while they could secure nothing. The growth of the country Is no more plainly shown than In the In crease of the appropriations for pos tal extension and postofflce Improve ments. The present session of con gress has appropriated over $1,000, 000,000 or $100,000,000 more than the pieceding congress. A large part of this increased expenditure Is devoted to postofflce service and Improve ment and goes directly Into the rural communities, towns and cities of the country where the people get specific results. This shows the Internal growth, the development of the home needs of the country, the evolution of modern conveniences. The people cannot complain at appropriations for this service. The people are the di rect beneficiaries. THE TWO LOVERS. The lover of her body said "She Is more beautiful than night, But like the kisses of the dead Is my despair and my delight." The lover of her soul replied, "She Is more wonderful than death, But bitter as the aching tide Is all the speech of love she salth." The lover of her body said, "To know one secret of her heart, For all the Joy that I have had Is past the reach of ull my art." The lover of her soul replied. "The secrets of her heart are mine, Save how she lives, a riven bride, Between the dust and the divine." The lover of her body sware, "Though she should hate me, wit you well, Rather than yield one kiss of her I give my soul to burn In hell " The lover of her soul cried out, "Rather than leave her to your greed I would that I were walled about With death, and death were death indeed!" The lover of her body wept And got no good of all his gain, Knowing that In her heart she kept The pennance of the other's pain. The lover of her soul went mad. But when he did himself to death, Despite of all the woes he had. He smiles as one who vanquish -th. Richard Hovey. THE IDEALIST. Think you that I am blind because I see Beauty and truth In souls where your keen eyes Discover only blemishes and lies? N'ay, dear, not blind am I, but verily Aflame with the true vision. What to me Is the dark thunder cloud that let riiks The hearts of children, when the open skies The other side ure lighted gloriously? Today a friend betrayed me, O re fined Last gift of pain! You know the words she said, You cannot know the mystery behind, You do not see her poor soul, passion-led Blindfolded by the dark veil of her mind That weeps and never may be com forted. A JIM CROW TOWN. West Virginia is to make an ex periment In a Jim Crow city. This city has been laid out near Charles town, the capital of the state, and It is expected that within a year It will contain a population of several thousand. No white person will be permitted to reside within the limits or to own property therein. In the midst of this little Africa Is situated the state colored high school. Educational facilities will be am. pie and there will be electric lights, sewera and a park. The city will be governed of courae, by the negro In habitants, and the whole state will watch with Interest the experiment as testing the capacity of the negro for self-government. Augusta, Ga., Chronicle. . Familiar. "I've seen you haul away many a load of ashes," said a resident of Mo bile, Ala., to an old darky as he was preparing to depart with the custom ary load. I've never had the least Idea of your name. What is it? "George Washington," was the answer. "George Washington, eh? It seems to me I've heard that name before." "Reckon you has, aah, 'cause I s been haulln' 'way ashes from ' yo house fo' more'n ten years." Of the 232 labor organizations formed last year In Canada, 61 were formed by railway employes, 43 by metal workers and 41 In the building trades. Ninety-four organizations were formed In Ontario, 51 In Que beck, 28 in Alberta and 22 In British Columbia. The year was a very pros perous one for the Dominion labor or ganizatlons. Hill FOIIQra HUMILIATING-VILE-DESTRUCTIVE The first symptom of Contagions Blood Poison is usually a little sore or nicer, which is quickly followed by a red rash on the skin, swollen glands in ths groin, falling hair, ulcerated mouth and throat, and often copper colored splotches on different parts of the body. As the blood becomes more fully contaminated with the poison, pustular eruptions and sores break out on the flesh, and in extreme cases the nerves and bones are attacked and the finger nails drop off. Then the sufferers find themselves diseased from head to foot with this humiliating, vile and destructive poison. No other disease is so highly contagious j many an innocent person has been Inoculated bjr handling the clothing or using the toilet articles of an infected person. There is but one certain, reliable cure for Contagious Blood Poison, and that IsS. S.S. It attacks the disease in the right way by going down . into the IZZS 1S9 PURELY VEGETABLE Eoison out of your blood before it permanently wrecks your health.

I'SES OP THE SAGEURrslI. In Nevada a factory is to be erect ed for extraction of potash from sage brush. In southern Idaho a plant Is under construction that will transform sage brush Into a valuable tonic. A few years ago It was discovered that a good article of rubber could be manufactured from this natural pro duct of the plains, and down In Ore gon some years ago an agricultural college experimented with grafting fruit trees onto sagebrush roots. About the time we learn Its true value, it will have disappeared like the buffalo, and then It will take years of experimenting to learn how to raise it with cultivation.
